Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leading Cases Commercial Law England and Scotland: Selected and Arranged in Systematic Order, With Notes Lawrence, J - From the loose manner in which the clause is worded, I at first entertained some doubt upon the question; but upon further consideration, I agree with my lord and my brothers upon their construc tion of it. If the question had arisen merely on the first part of the clause, I conceive that it would only have been necessary that the promise should have been stated in writing; but it goes on to direct that no per. Son shall be charged on such promise unless the agreement, or some note or memorandum thereof, that is, of the agreement, be in writing, which shows that the word agreement was meant to be used in a sense different from promise, and that something besides the mere promise was required to be stated. And as the consideration for the promise is part of the agreement, that ought also to be stated in writing.
